Bill: Library Decentralization
Details
Submitted by[?]: Kundrati Revolutionary Movement
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: May 2125
Description[?]:
| While we recognize the value of using nationwide funding to ensure that poorer areas are not deprived of quality libraries and materials, and thus ensuring continued inequity between rich areas and poor ones, we see no reason that the actual running of them must reside in the hands of the national government. We propose to officially hand over control to local entities, specifically to the library staff already in place and oversight boards created by local governments. |
